The Gothic Fantasy series is a large anthology project from Flame Tree Publishing, collecting classic and contemporary stories across horror, science fiction, mythology, and fantasy. Nathaniel Hawthorne’s stories appear in several volumes alongside work by many other authors. The series spans over 90 volumes covering topics from Norse myths to alien invasions to detective thrillers.
Flame Tree’s approach pairs classic public domain stories with new fiction from contemporary writers. Hawthorne’s tales fit naturally into volumes like American Gothic Short Stories (2019) and Chilling Horror Short Stories (2015), where his nineteenth-century Gothic sensibility sits next to modern horror. His Greek myth retellings also appear in the mythology-focused volumes.
The series has grown rapidly since its launch in 2015, adding new themed volumes each year. The physical editions are known for their distinctive foil-stamped covers. For Hawthorne readers, these anthologies offer a way to see how his stories hold up alongside both his contemporaries and today’s writers working in similar genres.
